Opened in November 2016, the Capella Gallery Hall is an upscale convention center in downtown Ho Chi Minh City. Featuring striking modern architecture and gorgeous interior design, the multifunctional space hosts a wide variety of events, ranging from luxurious weddings and private parties to international business conferences and industry conventions.
The Capella Gallery Hall hired systems integrator Ba Sao Investment to implement a complete Harman AV solution in each of its five large ballrooms and main lobby, consisting of JBL loudspeakers, Soundcraft mixing consoles, a dbx loudspeaker management system and a Martin lighting rig.
“Since opening less than a year ago, we have quickly gained a reputation as one of the finest event spaces in the city, hosting very important conferences for local and international businesses alike,” says Quang Dat Vu, technical manager, Capella Gallery Hall. “In order to maintain a standard of excellence across all aspects of our events, I trust Harman products to deliver superior audio quality and reliable operation.
“Each of our grand ballrooms are outfitted with JBL Control 24CT ceiling speakers and dbx DriveRack VENU360 speaker management systems, which provide excellent clarity and perfect coverage,” he says. “JBL EON 600 series speakers and subwoofers provide high-impact sound reinforcement when our events feature professional entertainment, and Soundcraft Signature Series consoles ensure the mix is top notch.”
In addition to the Harman audio equipment, the Capella Gallery Hall installed Martin RUSH lighting fixtures in the Capella Gallery Hall’s grand ballrooms to provide an engaging visual experience for guests. The Martin RUSH Multibeam 2 is a versatile fixture, providing mid-air effects with its ten individually controlled long-throw beams. With fifteen gobos and seven colors, the compact and energy-efficient Martin RUSH Wizard delivers a large variety of dance-floor looks. The Martin M-Touch enables easy DMX control of the Martin RUSH lighting fixtures, allowing the staff to easily design unique looks to suit each event’s needs.
“The Capella Gallery Hall is a unique space that has been carefully planned to provide an exceptional guest experience,” says Ramesh Jayaraman, VP & GM, Harman Professional Solutions, Asia Pacific. “We are privileged to have our products utilized by the Capella Gallery Hall and we are very happy to help the Capella Gallery Hall surpass their guests’ expectations.”
